Iluvatar CoreX (09903.HK) saw its stock price plummet 5.22% during intraday trading on Friday, extending losses from the previous session.
The decline is widely interpreted as technical profit-taking following a sharp rally of over 17% that occurred in recent sessions. This prior surge was driven by dual positive catalysts: the company's upcoming inclusion in the Hang Seng Composite Index, effective June 8, and Haitong International's initiation of coverage with an Outperform rating and a target price of 596.7 HKD.
After such a rapid ascent, investors are now locking in gains, leading to the current pullback in the stock's price.
